Library Thing

I chose to explore the site Library Thing. Our library is getting ready to use Library Thing for an online book display. I really enjoyed setting up an account and adding books to my bookshelf.
Remembering all the books that my grown children and I used to read while curled up on the couch together, was fun. The reviews that others posted were also interesting to read.
Library Thing was able to find every book that I searched for! The site enables you to search several databases at once. Library of Congress, Amazon, and Overcat. Overcat is Library Things database. There are over 700 libraries records that are available for search. After finding the book you want to add to your shelf, you can then rate the book, write reviews, join conversations, and find other books recommended by Library Thing.
Libraries can use Library Thing for reader's advisory, online book discussions, and virtual bookshelf or displays.
